Well, one of 2 things happens to me, I find fabric or a precut and then forget what pattern I was going to use, or I find a pattern i like and then forget what fabric I was going to use. So now this way when the fancy strikes me for a certain pattern or fabric, I quick kit it up and put the pattern with it in an artbin so it is all ready for the time to use it all up.
I have 5 of last year's quilts all trimmed and ready for binding. I want to get all the "old stuff" out of the way so I can begin anew.
